Photography, Concept development, own style and vision.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have been working as a photography teacher for various Course Centers, courses and art academies for several years. In these lessons I learn not only technology but also the content side of photography and video.

In consultation, we will choose a targeted approach that fits your wishes. Below an example of the route that we can follow.

We look at your current work, image makers who inspire and develop you and a curriculum in which we look for your individuality as an image maker.

We are working on an inspiration portfolio, make a research plan to guide your search. We work on concepts for different projects that further develop your own style. We are working on a presentation portfolio that reflects your vision as a photographer.

This process is something that we spread out over several months or years. And fully adapt to your wishes and needs. We may also work with other teachers with other specializations.

Extra information

If you want to add more depth to your work as a photographer, then this is the process to develop further. You do not have to be a technically experienced photographer to further develop your content. During the elaboration, we can always see whether you need to further develop the technology in order to be able to express yourself better in terms of content.

I work at your home, in our studio or online via TeamViewer. If you live more than 10 Km from Haarlem I charge travel costs. How much depends on the number of class hours you book per class. This is settled in the lesson duration.

Excellent teaching skills. I had booked private lessons and Ton tailored every session exactly to my needs, and added even more. Beside photography, we discussed day-to-day technical topics such as back-up, storage, organising images, etc. You can see that Ton is used to being in a classroom - very structured and content focused. Excellent communication, always on time and also flexible to reschedule if needed. I will be back with more questions!
Someone with a lot of experience who can explain well.

As an experienced teacher i train professionals and amateurs in photography and Adobe software. I teach in mij studio, at your home and online. For online sessions i work with Blizz from the firm Teamviewer. This is a European firm which has to work according to the European privacy rules. Apprentus Blocks our contact information but if you book a lesson with me for an hour, we will get each-others contact information. This wil make it possible to get in contact with each-other and discuss your exact needs for training and we can pick a precise date and time for the real training session. Apprentus helps us to get in contact. So payment for the extra hours will go through the Apprentus website
Lightroom is easy to use and has an efficient way to professionally process photos. It is also an archive system where you can organize the photos and find them quickly. In addition to editing the entire photo, you can also easily adjust the photo locally in the software. The combination of Panoramas and HDR is childishly simple and of very high quality in Lightroom. In the free Lightroom App you will learn the basic possibilities of the software. If you subscribe to Lightroom CC or CC Classic you have more extensive options. Lightroom CC is a limited version of the software. Lightroom CC Classic is the extensive version of the software that all professionals use. You do not have to work with Adobe's cloud. Photos can also only be on your computer. If you've never worked with Lightroom before, I'll quickly learn how the software works in 6 hours. For example 2x3 hours or 3x2 hours, at your home or with me in the studio. More experienced users learn the latest intricacies of the software within 1 to 2 hours. Lightroom is a fast and effective way to edit photos. You can quickly copy an edit from one photo onto a group of other photos. It is quick and easy to implement. Make your photos better with Lightroom. It is easier than you think. If you want to merge parts from different photos into an image, you go to Photoshop from Lightroom. This software requires more insight and time for processing photos. Of course I also teach.

Halfway between psychoanalysis on the one hand and American-style coaching on the other, with proposals that will be made to you according to your problem and that will have to be implemented, it will be advisable to proceed as follows: understand the mechanisms of thought & induced emotion, linked to given everyday situations and which involve blockages then act concretely through pragmatic techniques adapted to your problem, and which will be quickly proposed to you to regain power over your life thanks to the methodologies & practices of behavioral coaching. ➤This is why, choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out a quality work and help oneself to advance / overcome certain mechanisms will induce the awareness necessary for this decided change. This will then allow to register in a new dynamic in the personal & professional fields. ➤To lead this change, achieve its aspirations, improve its quality of life and develop the functioning of its cognitive, emotional or behavioral sphere, a cohort of very concrete tools and concepts are at our disposal, and which involve deepening the self-exploration. This involves questioning yourself, analyzing, taking a distance, and understanding the issues / points causing suffering, before finally freeing yourself from it. ➤Examples of topics / issues regularly addressed and which are regularly supported by a dedicated specialist coach, adapted to your plan: • Self-confidence, self-esteem and assertiveness, shyness, decision-making, assertiveness, personal development • Reduce suffering (phobia, stress, anguish, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression) and modify behaviors that are detrimental to well-being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, addictions), to better manage emotions & regain life. appeasement • Concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management •Professional/personal relationships (family, romantic, friendly, emotional, etc.) & social: from communication difficulties generating pain & frustration to the fluidity of relationships • Professional life: tensions, pressures & conflicts, (Re) professional orientation (CV, cover letter, job interview), competitions and exams, support in a business project, teamwork ➤Each point is the subject of techniques adapted to your situation, which you will probably never have put into practice...and which have proven their worth on the people you support. ➤Thus, although involving self-exploration, coaching remains concrete in its application and bears fruit from the first sessions, since it makes people autonomous, and not dependent. ➤You will understand, specializing in life support and personal & professional projects, it is our proven skills and the positive feedback from all the people previously supported that makes us able to support you, by catalyzing the keys to your success, through a methodology and pragmatic tools, adapted to your situation. ➤And if cookie-cutter advice is not offered, that you will never be led but guided without judgment, in a process of permanent / interactive co-construction ... it is because we believe that it It is first important to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages and your initial problem in order to clarify your aspirations. ➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments and the European methodology of applied psychotherapy, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties which may be partially linked to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned / adopted often in spite of oneself. ➤ So, how does a session take place? After having identified together a problem, blockages and objectives, it is a question of analyzing them together then proposing a series of suggestions/reflections/pragmatic actions. Concretely, a session = a reflection + solutions. From the second session, 98% of our coaches say they felt a clear difference that influenced their daily lives* (2022 study). ➤ THERAPIST - COACH - PSYCHOPRACTITIONER - PSYCHOANALYST - CONSULTANT Trained at Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our consultant teacher trainer has specialized and worked for more than 16 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject. ✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat. ✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions. ✓ Languages: French/English. ✓ The progress following these private sessions is perceptible from 1 to 2 sessions (*2023 study). ✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.
I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen. I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist. I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns. In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on. You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns. Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.
